Oh my, that is quite the laundry list you have going on there. Are you feeling OK? It sounds like a lot to deal with. Any chance of being able to eliminate them one by one, kind of like crossing off your shopping list? The diabetes may resolve as you lose weight?? Will the cyst of CSF go down on it's own? I know, take the fluid out of the cyst and add it to your head to get your brain to rise up.................just trying to be helpful.well, at least you have an idea as to what is making you feel as you do and how to respond to it. I'm still tilting at windmills!!

Wylee, No the diabetes is genetics from both my parents.i been keeping a wacky sense of humor to not think of it. The dr will drain the fluid off the cyst by monday that'll be 16 days. I just think of my life quirky a little less normal. I did work at oak alley plantation and i am a very fair skinned black girl..i look white with wavy hair...not normal

It is wonderful that you are able to keep your sense of humor. Sometimes we just have to accept the things we cannot change. And make the best of what we have.

Quirky is a word I know well :roll:
